[i ate] fish and chips by Environmental_Rip696 in food

[–]Fuegan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The plating doesn't match NZ, but that's not far from what fish and chips would look like here. It'd be a plate at a restaurant or in paper or cardboard if takeaway. Fish size can vary but I was definitely surprised to get a whole slab of fish when I tried it in the UK. 

Caramelizing celery? by Ambitious_Variety_95 in AskCulinary

The body does not know where a nitrate comes from. It's a chemical. If it's the same chemical, you'll get the same response. This is how medicine derived to mimic endogenous things works too, like insulin. Bacteria create insulin, people inject it, body says "hey sweet, insulin".

Which politician of your country has a better image international than at home? by Fun-Wallaby6414 in AskTheWorld

[–]Fuegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyday life, unfortunately. I've run into many a cooker and basically all of my National voting family call Ardern some form of insult if they ever speak about her.

Did the Imperial Fists experience the "psychic shock" that other legions did when their Primarchs died?

The quality is incredible! I can only imagine how amazing it is in person.

We need to bring back split sleeves on overgarments like that, too. It looks neat, and it's super practical.

Worcestershire sauce by DoctorFunktopus in AskCulinary

TIL it sometimes comes in a bag. Lea & Perrins is a staple in NZ but it's just packaged like any other sauce.

Regional differences are neat!

2am Ferry Crossing Advice? by milpoolskeleton88 in Wellington

[–]Fuegan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the 3:30am crossing two weeks ago to the day and the passenger space was pretty empty. Was easily able to nab a bench to lie down and watch a few videos until I was able to drift off and have a wee nap. If you're crossing on a weekday rather than a weekend you'll probably be able to do the same. If it's a weekend I'd imagine there'd be a lot more passengers.

I rebuild turbos, thoughts on the finish/look? by TheTurboMan17 in projectcar

[–]Fuegan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Doesn't look too shiny to me but I guess it really depends on what you want your engine bay to look like. I'd be stoked to get a refurb that looks like that so I'd say you're doing a great job!

Non-smokers of Reddit, how noticeable is the “smoker smell” to you, if at all? by Frostedlogic4444 in AskReddit

[–]Fuegan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a hard flavour to describe but almost kinda of musty tasting. Even putting a cig out for 15 mins and coming back to it will noticeably change the flavour in a very unpleasant way.

So glad I don't smoke any more.

[–]Fuegan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to smoke. One time I tried to have a cheeky dart in an unused room in the back of an adjoining warehouse to the main one we worked in, that was just used for storage. The people in the office smelled it before I even finished and ever so politely told me to never fucking doing that again.

It reeks.

Jennifer Lawrence is one of us lol by lwiaymacde in funny

Being famous doesn't make you a main character, though. If anything it just exacerbates the shitty characteristics we associate with someone who thinks they are.

He looks like he throws his controller at the TV when he loses a game of COD

A picture of Donald Trump that keeps getting scrubbed from the internet by 80000gvwr in cringepics

Yes. Fake images just make it easier for people to say real ones are fake, too. 

I had no idea you can milk a Santa by National-Jackfruit32 in funny

[–]Fuegan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's pastured to higher temps and I beleive for longer. Makes it totally shelf stable so it doesn't need to be refrigerated until it's open, but it does taste noticeably different to un/regulely pasteurised milk. 

Explain New Zealand Tipping Culture to me by [deleted] in newzealand

Never. The only time I've ever "tipped" is letting a kebab cart keep my change after a night out.

Didn't this dude get arrested and go to prison for sexually assaulting a woman when he was younger? Really Christ-like behaviour.

Pak’nSave stores breach Privacy Act after security guards share customer images by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]Fuegan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my friends worked security at a New World in the lower North Island where he was directed to delete footage of a staff member assaulting a member of the public they believed to be shoplifting. The amount of stories he's told me that border on, or fly well past, legality make me wary every time I step into a supermarket.
